SELLEST OSAST
In this episode of Code Calm, Dr. Melanie Gray sits down with Dr. Maiysha Clairborne to explore why psychological safety, trust, and genuine community are essential for healthcare leaders to survive chaos and burnout. Dr. Clairborne unpacks the reality of hypervigilance in high-pressure workplaces, revealing how stress, mistrust, and trauma impact clinicians long before they reach a breaking point.
The conversation dives deep into letting go of the "invincible caregiver" mindset, navigating organizational uncertainty, and building sustainable systems of support through connection. Listeners will come away with practical strategies to recognize workplace stress signals, protect their mental well-being, and shift from isolated survival to collective resilience.
